Some Year 4 children were lucky enough to spend an afternoon participating in multi sports activities. The others were lucky enough to have a visit from some nurses from the hospital.

The children really enjoyed learning about germs and where they come from. All children viewed their hands under a UV light so they could see how quickly germs spread and the importance of washing their hands. They were then taught how to clean their hands thoroughly!

We spent a lot of time discussing what bullying is and what different types of bullying may look like. We also discussed the impact that bullying can have on the victims, the family and friends of those victims and the person who is participating in the bullying behaviour.

Finally we had conversations about why people may become a bully and the strategies we may use to overcome and deal with such behaviours!

We discussed what different types of bullying may look like and then created freeze frames to try and portray this.

Can you spot the different types of bullying in this freeze frames?

We wore odd socks to celebrate our differences!

As their class teacher, I was very impressed with the contributions all children made to our discussions on bullying and the fantastic ideas they came up with to deal with this important issue!
